Are you looking for your next career move?
We are looking for an experienced, dynamic and confident leader who will put the needs of patients and Trust stakeholders first, as well as having the ability to robustly contract manage a mature and collaborative Decontamination Services Agreement (DSA). This is a unique collaborative agreement enjoyed between Northern Lincolnshire and Goole NHS Foundation Trust (NLaG) and United Lincolnshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust (ULTH).
The purpose of the DSA is to achieve a consistent, efficient, safe, and economical decontamination service to support the provision of clinical services across Lincolnshire. The service provider sterilises reusable instruments across the main hospital sites as well as community practices via processing units based within the footprint of Lincoln County Hospital and Diana Princess of Wales Hospital.
Acting as the central point of contact for both hospital Trusts, the successful candidate will be the principal interface between the service provider and key Trust stakeholders. The Customer’s Manager is the sole individual across both Trusts who has an inherent understanding of the contract, its mechanisms, and obligations. The exciting challenge is managing these commercial complexities whilst working in a public-sector healthcare setting, with each hospital having its own diverse day-to-day needs/expectations.
The Customer's Manager shall act as the principal interface between the Customer and the Other Customer and the Services Provider in relation to all matters relating to the DSA and the Similar Agreements respectively and establish appropriate relationships with the Services Provider's Manager. The Customer's Manager is to exercise the functions and powers of the Customer in relation to the Services as are identified in the DSA. The Customer's Manager is to always act in the best interests of the Customer in its relationship with the Services Provider.
The Humber Health Partnership is one of the largest acute and community Partnership arrangements in the NHS, seeing well over one million patients every year and managing a budget of over £1.3 billion.
